I think he is trying to kick his way out of my tummy. he keeps sticking his leg out and pushing really hard!

Today I have been getting contractions with period pains and had a bad tummy. It feels like the day before my period - I am all emotional and exhausted too These are the things woman who are 36 weeks plus complain about!

I know his head is down there ready, but how come i feel his hiccups in my groin now?? Surely he cant be that low already!! When can they start decending? Surely not yet!!

arrr

lots of hugs comin your way!!

if youve got any qiestion hun then give your mw a quick tinkle, im not sure when they start descending isnt it earlier with your first?

Drink lots of water and do nothing but rest! If you don't feel any better pretty quickly, call someone! Lots of hugs coming your way!

Hope things start to feel a bit better for you! If it continues or you're at all worried give yer MW a call - just to ease your mind. Watch out for these pains becoming regular as this could be a sign of preterm labour - might be worth getting checked out anyway just to be safe?

Take care x

if you're worried, give your midwife a ring. But make sure you keep rested hun, take it easy

thanks. I dont have a mw until tuesday as I just moved, so i will hopefully hold on until then, If the pains get worse i will pop into the day unit which is only 3 miles away now. i am sure it is just BH getting meaner and me being a winey wimp lol

Just take care of yourself and rest. And if it gets worse, get it checked out.

Hope you feel better soon

I hope you are feeling better.

lol@winey wimp.
its weird when you dont know what to expect though! i started to feel the hiccups around your time and my bubs has always been head down really low ever since MW could feel it properly.
My Bh's started just as uncomfortable tightening but the last 2 weeks its getting more painful and with the acheyness of period pain type feelings.
If you are worried though ring them up just to be sure.
Hope your move went well? maybe you over did it? what part of s'ton are you in now?
